Self CPR

Self CPR

Very interesting and important.

What are you to do if you have a heart attack While you are alone.

If you've already received this, It means people care about you. The Johnson City Medical Center staff actually Discovered this and did an in-depth study On it in our ICU.

The two individuals that discovered this then did An article on it, had it published and have had it incorporated into ACLS and CPR classes.

It is very true and has and does work.

It is called cough CPR. A cardiologist says it's the truth If everyone who gets this sends it to 10 people, You can bet that we'll save at least one life. It could save your life!

Let's say it's 6:15 p.m. And you're driving home (alone of course), after an usually hard day on the job. You're really tired, upset and frustrated. Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain In your chest that starts to radiate out Into your arm and up into your jaw. You are only about five miles from the hospital

Nearest your home. Unfortunately you don't know if you'll be Able to make it that far. What can you do? You've been trained in CPR But the guy that taught the course didn't tell You what to do if it happened to yourself.

Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, this article seemed to be in order. Without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, Has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each Cough, and the cough must be deep And prolonged, as when producing sputum From deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated About every two seconds without let up Until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and Keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.

Tell as many other people as possible about this, it could save their lives! From Health Cares, Rochester General Hospital via Chapter 240s newsletter 'AND THE BEAT GOES ON ' (reprint from The Mended Hearts, Inc. Publication, Heart Response)

The Law vs. Grace

The preamble

There seems to exist between the ground swell of Messianic believers a feeling! These new believers, who for the most part, keep the precepts and statutes of Torah as a way of life much better than the church at large have great trouble reconciling their new faith with the life style what they view as the catholic church universal. As "unsaved" Jews, they lived in more perfect obedience to the Law than what they see most believers to live. What is the meaning of this? Are they as individuals to become Goya in lifestyle in order to Accept this New Life. Common sense would say NO! Answer must be for the church to become more "Righteous in the daily life!"

Response to Romans 2:12-16

The law and grace,

the before and after.

The law and grace, the before and after. Two very different paradigm. The before always carries a load of guilt and shame, different for each but really similar for each; person to person. Each day, a day of judgment and by implication of failure, as the law was sent only to provide a target for living and by it's existence a d-facto contra part to the "agreement" between God and his people by which He provided the Blessings of Obedience. The if then conditional provided that all who "opted-in" would obtain the Blessing and those who did not did not qualify for the "if-then conditional." Deut 28:1-2 notes that all who "observed to do the law" would obtain the blessing. In a careful reading one is not required perfect obedience , but only perfect "listening with the intent of obeying." The significance of this is simply that it was not about the body obeying the Law, but about the heart condition and the process of observing to do. Provision was made for imperfect and incomplete obedience in the annual Day of Covering or Yom Kippur. This whole dynamic set up a day to day; even a minute to minute series of acts of self judgment.

Grace

The contrast of Grace sets up a similar series of periodic self judgments in the dynamic of the "if-then conditional;" the difference is that with the Grace we have a added feature that all incomplete performance was "forgiven-released," some two thousand years ago. This leaves a different atmosphere. The new one is one of success as opposed to failure. This new atmosphere provides great Freedom to live in a dimension of success that when observed by those under the old provision (The Law) might become jealous, desiring such freedom to live and walk in the law with out the weight of guilt, and the stumbling block this guilt becomes.

What to Do?

Trouble is: how many rally walk in this freedom. How many even consider that the precepts of the Law have not changed only the judgment for non-performance?

Conclusion

Just for today, I volunteer to walk in the Right way, to keep as much of the Torah as I can. Where I miss it, I now plead the merits obtained by the Blood Yeshua shed in the process of enduring the Cross and all that it Cost!
